Cumulative GSS+ debt reached USD67.8bn<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luxembourg\/ S\u00e3o Paulo, November 7, 2025<\/strong> \u2013 Brazil\u2019s sustainable debt market continued to expand in the first half of 2025, according to the new Brazil State of the Market H1 2025 report released by the Climate Bonds Initiative, written in partnership with ERM\/NINT and funded by the LAGreen Fund. The findings highlight Brazil\u2019s growing role as the key sustainable finance hub in Latin America as the country prepares to host COP30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of the end of June 2025, Climate Bonds recorded USD67.8 billion in cumulative GSS+ (green, social, sustainability and sustainability-linked) debt volume originating from Brazil, of which USD49.3 billion (73%) aligned with Climate Bonds screening methodologies. While Brazil\u2019s overall alignment rate remains below that of peers such as Chile (96%) and Mexico (76%), it showed marked improvement in the first half of 2025, with 93% of new GSS+ debt meeting alignment criteria, up from 88% in H1 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brazil compared to LAC<\/strong>
Brazil is the most dynamic GSS+ market in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), ranking among the top three in cumulative volume with USD49.3 billion (19% of the regional total) and 152 issuers, compared to just 39 in Mexico and 28 in Chile. Unlike Chile and Mexico, where sovereign issuance dominates, Brazil\u2019s market is broader and more diversified, featuring the highest number of transactions in the region, strong corporate participation, and a clear preference for local currency (51%). Hosting both sovereign issuers and some of the region\u2019s largest corporate issuers, Brazil combines scale and depth, consolidating its role as a key driver of sustainable finance in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Green bonds still dominate<\/strong>
Green-labelled instruments are the leading segment in Brazil\u2019s cumulative GSS+ market, accounting for 61% (USD30 billion) of total volume. This makes Brazil the largest source of green bonds in LAC, ahead of Chile (USD15.6 billion) and Mexico (USD6.5 billion).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBrazil\u2019s sustainable finance market is demonstrating resilience and depth,\u201d said Sean Kidney, CEO of Climate Bonds Initiative. \u201cThe strong pipeline of green and transition-labelled issuance, combined with evolving taxonomies and regulatory efforts, positions Brazil as a leading example of how finance can support climate and nature-positive goals as we move toward COP30.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Brazillian labeled debt market continues to stand out as a regional benchmark, reflecting strong investor interest in sustainable instruments and in advancing the ESG agenda. The issuance of sovereign sustainable bonds marked a key milestone, helping to expand and diversify the market with active participation from companies, banks, investors, and development institutions. With COP30 taking place in Brazil, in the heart of the Amazon, this market has the potential to scale up investments in critical sectors for sustainable development, with a particular focus on bioeconomy and climate adaptation and resilience finance,\u201d said Tatiana Assali, director at ERM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBrazil\u2019s sustainable debt market is entering a new phase of maturity and global relevance,\u201d said Myriel Frische, Portfolio Manager at LAGreen Fund. \u201cCredible, high-impact bonds have succeeded in attracting an increasing number of investors, underscoring the importance of transparency and robust reporting. Through its support for issuers and focus on quality standards, LAGreen is helping to strengthen the foundation of Brazil\u2019s sustainable finance market ahead of COP30.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report highlights a surge in sovereign and development bank activity, with both playing a pivotal role in deepening market liquidity and setting benchmarks for private issuers. Sectors such as renewable energy, low-carbon agriculture, and water infrastructure remained top destinations for green investment, aligning with Brazil\u2019s climate adaptation and mitigation priorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The publication underscores the need to scale up adaptation and resilience finance, particularly for nature-based solutions and land-use transition, in order to meet national climate targets and contribute to global pathways under the Paris Agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report was launched on November 7, at an event hosted by Stocche Forbes in S\u00e3o Paulo, featuring a presentation of the report\u2019s key insights, followed by a panel discussion and a workshop on sustainable finance. The event gathered around 40 leaders from government, finance, and industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
